The place is truly an experience. If you’re looking to spend time in Bangkok like a local, this is the place! The description of the place is very accurate. AND I loved how clean it was inside and the mix between traditional and modern fixtures - it added character to the place that made it feel like “home”. I’ve been traveling for two weeks around Thailand and have been at other airbnbs (somewhere in Silom) and hotels (Dwantawan hotel in Chiangmai and Eden resorts in Koh Samui), and this is one was the cleanest and most comfortable for me. The stairs leading up to the bedroom is sort of steep and the ledge is shorter than normal staircases, but this didn’t change my opinion about my stay here - it actually made it feel more “real”.
There isn’t much directly in the neighborhood...you still have to walk a few minutes to hit the main road for places to eat. There is a coffee shop called Soi65 which I loved! They serve American breakfast there too. The coffee is very good and the food is good too! (They are closed Mon and Tue though).
Tongpong is also an amazing host! He was very responsive, accommodated to our needs and was extremely helpful when we encountered any mishaps! If he was able to help, he always did.
I would highly recommend this place and would come back again, for sure!
